"Copyright violation" is probably the wording you're looking for. Copyright violation is not taking or theft or stealing or any of those other words - it's copyright violation.
Whether training an AI on a copyrighted work without permission of the copyright holder is a violation of copyright is something that is debatable. But it most definitely is not stealing or theft. Theft is covered by completely different laws.
